📝 Description: Pagan Portals - Sacred Sex and Magick

The members of the Web PATH Center, a pagan church and spiritual community in Lyons, NY, wondered what would happen if they wrote a book about sex. The book needed to be spiritual. It needed to be sexy. It needed to be explicit. Sacred Sex and Magick is the result. The group describes how ordinary ritual practices like grounding and creating a cone of power involve sensuality and rising kundalini energy. They explain how to use that power in making magick happen. Then they share secrets of the Great Rite and how to include the power of the sacred marriage at home. This book is for people who want a spiritual path that involves the physical ecstasy of sex and the dynamics of magick that works. Solitaries, pagan partners and spouses, and people with spirit lovers will all dance with the ecstasy found in this book.

💎 Expert review

Esoterica Books editorial team
Occult literature desk
While the Web Path Center offers a bold assertion regarding the potency of sacred sex in magick, this approach may alienate readers who prefer more abstract or purely meditative forms of witchcraft. The text’s heavy emphasis on physical intimacy as the primary conduit for divine energy is not suitable for those uncomfortable with erotic spirituality or who view magic strictly through intellectual lenses. It assumes a willingness to engage with sensual grounding practices that some might find too explicit or narrow. However, for its specific audience, it serves as a vital resource for understanding the intersection of sexuality and spellcraft without unnecessary dogma.
